#the dave pell singers

[cagneyblooms]

Alrighty. More tpom ocs! This time we gotta villain >:3

(HUGE shout-out to @art-tea-chill for helping me come up with alot of cephlalas character, from design to even her name! I don't think I would've been able to come up with nearly as much of a character if it wasn't for her, so ty!)

Cephalala:

-Species: Sharpear Enope Squid

- A Primadonna, She's popular with the little girls who come to the central park zoo due to her beauty, but this doesn't satisfy her enough. She has everything but one thing, a talented singing voice, something Peniru has, and something that Cephalala has extreme envy and hatred for.

- Luckily for Cephalala, Dr. Blowhole created an invention for Cephalala which would suck out all the singing talent from Penirus voice using the seashell attached to the middle of her cape. it activates when she clicks the button, and that's able to instantly suck away all of her vocal cords, almost like magic.

- She tries to keep her facial expresses as stilted as possible so she doesn't "Get wrinkles and become ugly and old as quick as light", but she can't control her facial expressions when she's REALLY angry.

- Engaged to Dave

- She lives in a cavern similar to Ursulas cave, where she brews ideas and potions in her cauldron before dave has to revise them for her because of hers plans many flaws

- She can cloak into dark places with her cape, making it easier for her to spy on the penguins and Peniru

- Gets unbelievably upset when Skipper misspells her name

- Her least favorite member of the team is private, she's tried many times to kidnap him.

- Dave built her a tool that would allow her to disguise herself as a human like he does, so she can use Penirus stolen talent to become a Superstar singer to the unsuspecting humans on land, as another way to become the center of everyones attention, essentially becoming a fake-celebrity

- She will absolutely scream in horror if anything that she considers "Not Glamorous" gets onto her "Marvelous, Flawless Self",

- Her eyes and cape glow in the dark

- Voice Actor: Christa Miller (Basically, just listen to cleos voice from season 1 of clone high.)

- (Stolen) Singing Voice: LeAnn Rimes

Jathino:

- Jathino is a violet sea snail who acts as Dave and Cephalalas honestly just tired and exhausted Meowth, he was stolen from his natural habitat by Cephalala and kept for his, in her own words, "Natural Beauty". Jathino tries to give his advice and opinion on things that Cephalala does, but is usually cut off by Dave. He's usually dragged into the duos schemes, and while occasionally it's fun for him, sometimes he wishes he could just live with the penguins instead of having to deal with their antics, he's fond of daydreaming and occasionally daydreams about being a penguin on their team, it's basically his wish at this point, but as far as he's concerned he's stuck with cephalala and dave forever

Voice Actor: Joseph Pelling

10 Questions – Dive Queer Party

[5 minute read]

Dive Queer Party are legendary for their riotous, vibrant and unforgettable cabarets. We sat down with Dive founders Miss Annabel Sings (MAS) and Agent Cooper (AC) to see what festive treats are in store at their upcoming cabaret.

So rev up your sleigh, smooth down your stockings and get ready to unwrap an extra special festive edition of our 10 Questions.

(Image: Agent Cooper (L) and Miss Annabel Sings (R). Rod Penn)

1. Who are Dive Queer Party, and what was your inspiration for creating the company?

MAS: Our four eyes met across a sticky carpet during the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2011 when I was touring with notorious live art collective Eat Your Heart Out. I asked Agent Cooper on a date but despite having lots in common we never made it to first base (thank goodness). We got scheming instead, joining forces to talk about our shared vision for a queer space to share, explore and show off their collective creativity, joy and madness in a safe, fun and inclusive environment.

AC: That space would eventually become Dive Queer Party, which started off as an eclectic, anything-goes queer party in the murky depths of a subterranean dive bar in Edinburgh in July 2013. This is where the foundations of the company and collective were rooted and from this early stage, we were promoting a world where – through the power of positive expression – you can be whoever you want to be, however you want to be, wherever you want to be. (By the way, I still deny she ever asked me out on a date.) 

2. Can you tell us about the first time you performed as Miss Annabel Sings and Agent Cooper, and how have these characters developed and changed over time?

AC: Miss Annabel Sings has been performing since she could walk and talk, making shows for her family in her front room. She’s been on stage ever since, winning a Fringe First at the precocious age of 11 with the Young Pleasance company. As a (nearly) grown up in London she stumbled through a curtain and found a calling as a clown on the neo-cabaret scene as part of performance duo Pustra/Vile-een and was at the forefront of the revival of vaudeville in London in the early 2000s with political performance collective Eat Your Heart Out. The group played an instrumental role in making performance art accessible to everyone, bringing cabaret and performance art out from the underground and art galleries respectively and into pubs clubs and more accessible venues. Her solo work has taken her all over the world and her diary piece Psychomanteum has been presented in various Edinburgh festival shows, Glastonbury Festival, The Supper Club in Amsterdam, The Live Art Development agency, Shunt and BFI London.

MAS: Performance is a fairly new thing for Agent Cooper who did a lot of hanging around in the wings before being inspired to try out drag and then get on stage by her friend Diane Torr - an incredible drag king, activist and performance artist who died this year. We dedicated all of our Fringe shows this year to Diane, with both of us donning banana themed outfits in homage to Diane’s famous performance, which made use of the suggestively shaped fruit. We’re really proud that Dive provides a platform for exchange between artists of all ages and stages, both emerging and established, and showcases home-grown talent alongside international guests – it’s a safe space to develop, try things out and push yourself.

3. What treats are in store for audiences at The Miss Annabel Sings Show Camp as Xmas Cabaret?

MAS: Oooh well, it’ll be a proper festive feast of anarchic queer cabaret featuring some of the best bits of Dive’s triumphant year, with performances from the fairest drag kings and queens of the realm, as well as saucy sing-song-a-longs, riotous audience games, delicious festive cocktails and a very special (bio) Queen’s speech.

AC: We’re delighted to be raising funds for Waverley Care, Scotland’s HIV and Hepatitis C charity, in recognition of World AIDS Day. And there’s a special guest performance from transgurl cabaret singer Sadia Godiva, one of the stars of Dive’s over 50’s cabaret project which was launched for LGBT History Month in February in partnership with Luminate – Scotland’s creative ageing organization, and LGBT Health & Wellbeing.

MAS: The event kicks off with an atypical office Christmas disco from 4-6pm with Dive’s resident DJ, Dave from Accounts. The Miss Annabel Sings Shows opens straight after at 6pm, stuffed full of the best bits of 2017 and guest performances from drag queens Fedora Veronic Homburg, Duclea Reigns, Georgia Tasda and The Duchess, and Drag Kings King Biff, Simon Paterson and our very own Agent Cooper. It will also star Luke Pell as the Angel Gay-briel and an alternative carol concert from the hilarious Porn Choir (they do exactly what it says on the tin).

4. How do you want audiences to feel after seeing the show?

Stuffed but ready for another good basting next season.

5. What Christmas traditions have you drawn on for the show?

Everything but anything and the kitchen sink! Nativity, Christmas numbers ones, a bad office disco, snogging in the stationary cupboard, photocopying your bum, charades, a celebrity drag king edition of Mastermind (aka Mistermind)…you name it, it’s in there!

6. What are your favourite Edinburgh haunts?

MAS: I love the underground vaults. I love a good haunting, me. *Cackles maniacally*

AC: The urinals, gym changing rooms, lorry sleeper compartments…anywhere with the heady scent of a real man really.

MAS: And of course all the precious queer spaces in the city for fun and performance like The Rabbit Hole, Pollyanna, Grrl Crush and Hot Mess, to name a few.

(Image: Miss Annabel Sings. Rod Penn)

7.     Who are your offstage heroes and why?

MAS: Leigh Bowery, for being so out there and showing us anything is possible. My whole view of performance changed when I encountered his world. This was the inspiration for our ongoing show Homage - a celebration of queer heroes from the past, present and future, resurrected or given life through the medium of performance and showcased in the unique, rainbow-adorned, glitter-streaked world that is Dive. And my parents – 80-year-old Cupcake Alfie and Yvonne - for giving me theatre in the first place. They sent me off to drama classes as a young one and definitely gave me this ridiculous sense of humour, as well as a steely perseverance.

AC: The aforementioned gender activist, dancer and drag king Diane Torr. We became friends with Diane only 3 years ago but she made a massive impact on me before she sadly died earlier this year. Her stage appearances and Man For A Day workshops are legendary and Dive was lucky enough to work with her many times in the short time we knew each other. For over thirty years she explored the theoretical, artistic, and practical aspects of gender identity and was so generous in sharing her knowledge and experience at the same time as being ruthlessly experimental and open to trying new things. I think she’d be excited and proud to see the blossoming drag king scene in Scotland and the UK with nights like The King’s Court (at The Rabbit Hole at CC Blooms) here in Edinburgh and places like Bar Wotever, Kingdom and The Glory down south.

8.  Are there any websites, books or other resources that you find particularly useful as a theatre maker?

MAS: Dive-party.org,uk! YouTube, Karaokeversion.com, Netflix, tele, the news…we find inspiration in everything and anything and spend lots of time together playing, being silly and making each other laugh.

9. What has been your most memorable theatre experience – either as a member of the audience or as part of the creative team?

MAS: Grotbags in panto at the Watford Palace Theatre as a kid and coming to the Edinburgh festival for the first time age 11 in 1991 to perform in Pier Class with the Young Pleasance. I knew then that I wanted to live here in Edinburgh and be on the stage.

10. Can you sum up the show in three words?

Camp As Xmas!

(Image: Agent Cooper (L) and Miss Annabel Sings (R). Rod Penn)

And a bonus round of quick-fire Christmas Questions...

-  Best part of Christmas dinner?

AC: Seconds.

-  Favourite Christmas film?

MAS: Gremlins or Elf.

AC: Anything that isn’t The Snowman.

-  And to finish off, what classic Christmas tune can you not stand?

MAS: Bowie & Bing – should’ve been great…what were they doing?!

AC: Mr Blobby. Just. No. I’m often troubled by the thought of who or what was under that suit. *Shudder*

[terrordave1]

The day before my buddy, Chris Carr, and I left for Horrorhound Weekend/Mask-Fest, we saw Stephen King’s IT with my kids. It was the Thursday night premiere and afterwards I groggily posted a blog on it before getting the few hours’ sleep necessary for the drive to Indy. At the time, we assumed there’d be lots of fans dressed as Pennywise at this event but, outside of a couple Tim Curry versions, that wasn’t the case. Understandably, most folks hadn’t even seen IT yet. That’s not to say, however, that Horrorhound didn’t seize upon the film’s debut nor the resurgence of killer clown popularity since last year’s media-driven hysteria.

After the main convention activities ended, the Marriott’s Freedom Ballroom opened for after-hour events. In celebration of the film (which we had no idea at that time would go on to be the highest grossing horror movie in history) they held a special IT party with Scare’oke’ and Clown Costume Contest that Friday night. It would end up being just as goofy and unforgettable as its name would imply.

First, we walked back to our hotel to unload our autographs and some rather bulky items I purchased in the vendor’s hall. In many ways, the friendship between Chris and I defies the Laws of Nature. He’s one of those sports-fan, athletic types while I’m pretty much the epitome of “dork.” It was sort of like if Anthony Michael Hall and Emelio Estevez went out for pizza together after finishing up detention in The Breakfast Club. During the course of the weekend, I saw a lot of folks wearing T-shirts with Trick r Treat Sam, Jason Voorhees, and Michael Myers but only Chris touting Notre Dame Football. This immediately caught the attention of that big security guard I mentioned in my first post who suddenly snapped out of his usual, “take no crap from anyone” stance to strike up conversation with Chris. Honestly, in my years of doing this event, I’ve never seen that guard crack a smile, let alone converse. I stood there in disbelief as the two began chatting in that strange foreign language I like to refer to as Jockanese. If only I could have Chris along whenever I take a cab ride back in Chicago. That man could buffer a lot of uncomfortable conversations between me and the driver as they inevitably break the awkward silence with an even more problematic discussion on sports! This same scenario would play out later between Chris and one of our waitresses at a nearby restaurant and honestly made me realize the importance of traveling with an interpreter!

When we entered the Ballroom, the stage was set up and they were doing sound-checks via some guy singing ACDC (and doing a pretty good job, I might add). I noticed Woody the Clown was leading the festivities which was like a blast from the past. The last time I saw him was five years ago at the Fright Night Film Fest in Louisville. Back then he was part of Atomic Age Cinema with Baron Mardi, Basement Boy, and Dr, Calamari. I have no idea whatever happened to those guys, but Woody was obviously alive and well and began this event by “singing” the classic ‘80s hit, “99 Red Balloons.” Once he (and the rest of us) struggled through the first verse, a set of double doors opened and a bunch of Horrorhound volunteers started kicking real red balloons into the hall; each one with the Stephen King IT logo on them. You honestly couldn’t have come up with a better intro.

Once the room was sufficiently loaded with balloons, the lights dimmed and it became a free-for-all. Everyone started running around pell-mell amongst killer clowns (who showed up for the costume contest) while kicking around the balloons and listening to the performers.

The Scary’oke singers represented all ranges of talent from a guy screeching Aerosmith’s “I don’t want to miss a thing” to a voluptuous zombie gal performing a rather cool rendition of Jefferson Airplane’s “White Rabbit.”

By far the weirdest moment was when a guy who calls himself “Con Jesus” and an evil minister performed a duet together. I have no idea what that song was but it was a riot!

When the music stopped and the stage became more brightly lit we knew it was time for the Clown costume contest. Here are some highlights…

And more highlights…

I have to say, the whole night was pretty hilarious and Chris proved to be one of the most fun people to do conventions with! He added a lot of energy and his humor enhanced the entire weekend. I was so glad he asked to join me and, mismatched as we may be, I’ve no doubt that he’ll be making a lot of appearances on this site in the future. Between him and Jason I’m starting to wonder if the best thing for this site is to literally go “beyond the Daves.”

…though I still have NO intention of ever watching sports!

~Dave Fuentes

Coming Up…Jason Takes Indianapolis!

Watch Foo Fighters Cover AC/DC With Hives Singer in Sweden

Watch Foo Fighters Cover AC/DC With Hives Singer in Sweden

Foo Fighters played a secret gig in Stockholm, Sweden on the eve of the release of their new LP Concrete and Gold, and to close out the concert, Dave Grohl and company brought out the Hives’ fiery frontman Pelle Almqvist to cover AC/DC’s “Let There Be Rock.”

Before bringing out “Howlin’ Pelle,” Grohl talked about his long admiration for the Hives singer, even dressing as Almqvist and covering the Hives’ “Hate to Say I Told You So” at Foo Fighters’ Halloween 2002 gig in New York.

“So tonight I thought it would be a good idea if we did a song together, one that we’ve never played with him before, but I think it makes perfect sense for this show,” Grohl said as he the intro to Led Zeppelin’s “Stairway to Heaven” before tearing into the 1977 AC/DC track, which Foo Fighters have frequently performed live since 2015.

In 2016, when AC/DC’s Brian Johnson announced he had to step away from the band, Almqvist was among the rockers who openly lobbied to be his replacement, Blabbermouth notes.

“I have many, many years of experience rocking the world’s biggest stages and, according to others, I am the greatest frontman in rock, plus judging from the reaction in Australia, your crowd already seems to really like me,” Almqvist wrote on the Hives’ Facebook at the time. “Plus, I have already been singing those songs since I was six years old. So, AC/DC, please consider my application.”

New Post has been published on SCRATCHTHEBLOCK

New Post has been published on http://scratchtheblock.com/scratchtheblock-presents-roots-a-trip-into-neo-soul-wonderland/

SCRATCHTHEBLOCK PRESENTS: ROOTS (A TRIP INTO NEO-SOUL WONDERLAND)

We grew up with a steady diet of great great music performed by D’Angelo, Jill Scott, India Arie, Leela James, Calvin Richardson,Maxwell,Dwele,Brian McKnight,Amell Larrieux,Lauryn Hill,N’Dambi,Eric Roberson and the list goes on & on! 

In terms of sonorities we love to define this kind of music as neo-soul , u know da groove , da warm rhodes notes and the feel-good vibrations..

Roots is a trip into neo-soul wonderland packed with the most impressive joints imbued with a sound that gravitates towards nu-soul melodies.

THABO – MORE OF THAT (PRODUCED BY ARON KYNE)

Let’s get the ball rolling with a goose-bump inducing neo-soul piece performed by Thabo Mkwananzi. Originally from Zimbabwe , the talented singer/songwriter/producer earned notoriety with his band The Real Deal ( Aron Kyne on Rhodes piano, Emmanuel Allert on acoustic guitar and Ali Mac on percussion) sharing the stage with well-known neo-soul artists such Avery Sunshine (check out her last effort Twenty Sixty Four), Eric Roberson,Dwele among others. The U.K based performer will literally seduce your ears and your soul with a superb and succulent downtempo song called More Of That wisely produced by musician/producer Aron Kyne . 

MOONCHILD – EVERY PART (FOR LINDA)

Los Angeles group Moonchild represents a rare example of musical project able to wrap three masterpieces in a mere five years! Infact through the superlative Be Free , Please Rewind and the new Voyager, Amber Navran, Max Bryk, and Andris Mattson have proven themself to be a staple amongst the jazz/neo-soul scene becoming an in-demand group for dope collaborations with artists such as Rapsody (appearing on her sumptuous Crown EP) and  Tall Black Guy (Let’s Take A Trip). Today we continue to celebrate Moonchild art selecting another brilliant piece from their recent majestic opus Voyager. The track is called Every Part (For Linda) and now sit back,relax and contemplate something that stands for quality.

THE PLAYLIST FEAT. GLENN LEWIS – SUPERMAN And now we can define Jeff Townes aka DJ Jazzy Jeff not only as a gifted turntablist/record producer/disk jokey but also as a “patron of the arts”. The Playlist is the brainchild of the Philly veteran hip-hop artist, described as

   an intimate gathering of progressive artists for the purpose of inspiration, motivation and collaboration

In accordance with the principles of making good music through collabo between musicians,producers as well as singers and rappers Jeff invited a fleet of superlative acts to his mansion in order to give them the opportunity to work on a project which led to the amazing Chasing Goosebumps featuring the brilliant neo-soul canadian singer Glenn Lewis (the underexposed genius behind the neo-soul classic masterpiece World Outside My Window)

We purchased the outstanding album and one of our favorite track is da supa-dupa-mellow Superman. Superman is definitely a tasteful cocktail, whose ingredients are blended together to create a perfect balance between melodies,harmonies and vocals. These ingredients go by the name of the most impressive artists of the international urban scene! Oh yeah, we got Eric Roberson,Maimouna Youssef & Muhsinah as background vocals ,we got Stro Elliot & Steve McKie on drums,we got James Poyser, Kaidi Tatham and  Daniel Crawford on keys and Jeff Bradshaw, Matt Cappy, Rick Tate on the horns! 

  PJ MORTON FEAT. PELL – CLAUSTROPHOBIC

Genuine, raw,organic and pure ! PJ Morton got an abundance of skills which have made him a great in-demand musician/composer/singer/songwriter but also a mature triple-threat able to wrap compelling albums. During his career PJ had the pleasure to work with a plethora of renowned artists such as Robert Glasper Experiment,India Arie,Anthony David,Jeff Bradshaw,Jagged Edge,Faith Evans,Monica,Lil Wayne and many others. This year the New Orleans-bred artist launched his fourth album entitled Gumbo under his own imprint Morton Records.Let us serve you up the smooth Claustrophobic featuring New Orleans rapper/singer Pell

STEVE LACY – C U GIRL

Los Angeles grammy nominated  guitarist/producer/singer/songwriter and member of The Internet , Steve Lacy has welcomed the huge international success of his band but he’s smart enough to use this success as launching pad for his solo career (just like his bandmates). In parallel with a series of fruitful collabo along side Kali Uchis, Big Sean,GoldLink and last but not least Kendrick Lamar (he worked on Pride from the acclaimed Damn) , Steve had time to drop Steve Lacy’s Demo , a set of pieces released as solo artist that served as little tasteful appetizer for his fans. Scratchtheblock crew really loves Lacy eclectic and experimental approach so allow us to recommend the dope C U Girl.

TA’RAACH & THE LOVELUTION FEAT. JOY JONES – LIBERATIONS LULLABYE

Terrell McMathis better known as Ta’Raach is a multi-faceted producer/rapper,grew up in Detroit ,  whose brilliant mind graced us with majestic pieces such as Gone Baby, Don’t Be Long by Erykah Badu.  J.Dilla, Blu & Exile,Waajeed,Platinum Pied Pipers,SA-RA Creative Partners,Samon Kawamura are just few names of the artists which collaborated with Ta’Raach . In 2006 , Ta’Raach released the excellent opus The Fevers  written, produced, and mixed entirely by himself and packed with some interesting artists like Big Tone,Amp Fiddler and los angeleno rapper Blu among others. We selected the extra-refined neo-soul cut called Liberations Lullabye featuring the incredible voice of East LA experimental vocalist Joy Jones (which delighted us with her project Godchild, an exquisite blend of future soul,postmodern funk and intergalactic grooves ). This year in February Ta’Raach composed and arranged a compilation to pay tribute to Detroit sound: The Unseen – A Detroit Beat Tape Soundtrack

ALFA MIST & EMMAVIE – EASILY, I FORGET

The next track is a masterpiece finely wrapped by two dope artists from U.K: Alfa Mist and Emmavie. Alfa is young and talented self-taught pianist/producer from Newham,East London. His production skills unveil a penchant for jazz sonorities and hip-hop music and his signature sound is imbued with dark/contemplative beats intertwined with soul and jazzy elements. Emmavie is definitely one of our fav artists from U.K! Her intoxicating style, her incredible vocal prowess,her creative and intelligent approach behind the boards as producer make her a genuine,extraordinary international talent! In 2014 Alfa Mist and Emmavie joined their forces to record an impressive collaborative project entitled Epoch from which we chose the soulful Easily, I Forget. The joint will provide intense goosebumps,your brain will flush with dopamine and a tingly chill will whisk down your back!

SAMNELLY – LIKE THAT (PRODUCED BY BLUNTEDBEATZ)

Oh yes…the young New York singer Samantha Nelsen aka Samnelly  is a rookie but as you know the most important thing in music , is the ability to instill emotions and damn…with her track called Like That she literally knocked we out! Taking advantage of the mellow jazzy beat designed by Hamburg based beatmakers Dave White and Dr.Slice known by the stage name Blunted Beatz , Samnelly bewitched us with her soothing vocals.

    TAY WALKER – A CRAZY THING CALLED LOVE

We live in New York, Flatbush to be exact but damn…we have to admit the Los Angeles area is cranking out a lot of quality music.Recently great projects poured down on us , exciting our senses …so we can sing the praises of Ill Camille and her Heirloom , Terrace Martin is almost ready to release Sounds Of Crenshaw Vol.1 with his side project The Pollyseeds , Iman Omari warmed up his fans with Move Too Fast from the forthcoming  IHY LP , Matt Martians dropped a solo project called The Drum Chord Theory and we can go on again n again……Today we’re happy to listen to a brand new single written,produced and performed by Tay Walker.Try to define the talent of Mr.Walker without falling into the trap of banality is not easy !The Inglewood multi-talented artist is known for his collaborations along side The Internet (playing the keys on Purple Naked Ladies and working on the masterpiece Feel Good as composer, featured Artist, keyboardist as well as producer) but we prefer to focus our attention on his individual skills.In 2015 Tay Walker released his debut project entitled 25Hours A Day giving to the world a taste of his boundless potential and seducing with pieces like Karma.During a little conversation Tay told us he’s currently working on a new project called OWSTN (One Way Street No Nowhere ) and we want to share with you the sublime song titled A Crazy Thing Called Love.It’s a slow burning track that will enrapture your senses and will take you to the clouds above!Make sure you to check out the official music video which hosts young los angeleno artist Kleva GTD.

With iTunes being the new go to destination at 12:01 every Friday, its proves the want for new music is an ever growing one. Every week an album comes out with the potential to be great, and keeping track of it all is equivalent to finding the Golden Ticket in a Wonka Bar. We all wish to be Charlie Bucket, to be the one to find that hidden pass to paradise and show it to our loved ones. This is the first of a monthly series: The Golden Ticket Search, in which we present an album or albums that are hidden gems of originality, quality or an entry into something never before seen by the common man.

The Golden Tickets Of March: Daye Jack’s alternative hip-hop adventure through technology on “No Data” 

Daye Jack “No Data”

To add to the ever growing list of genre bending Georgia artists, Daye Jack comes cruising in on his newest project, his debut studio album, “No Data”. Daye Jack, originally from Atlanta, began making music while attending NYU and has since been featured on tracks with Ariana Grande & Killer Mike, along with being an accompaniment to Pell and Lukas Graham on their own respective tours. Since signing to Warner Bros. the MC/singer has released his debut EP “Soul Glitch”. With further refinement from the projects before it, this album is layered with danceable electro and smooth synth-pop inspired beats. Within its 12 tracks, this debut is formed around thematic elements of the struggles of finding yourself in a physical world that is constantly being blurred with a digital one, and his want to find the answers all young people have. “How do i get me a bad bitch?”, “How do I get a million dollars?”, all questions asked to “his own personal AI”, a computerized woman's voice, who comes up fruitless to the answers Daye desires. Daye also raps and sings of the constant images being thrown in front of himself in the digital world and how that affects his wants in the physical world. Along with the computerized AI SAM,, Florida spitter Denzel Curry, Brooklyn rapper DonMonique, and Grim Dave are the lone features on the LP. A tight knit 42-minute concept project is the most refined version of the digi-world persona Jack has built for himself through previous releases, and begs the question on where he will go next, and how long will we have to wait with baited breath for the next chunk of songs to come.

Best Track: “Finish Line”

Sounds Like: N.E.R.D.’s “Fly Or Die”
